Dinan V10 track engine glows purple, accelerates BMW M5 to plaid
We love the 5.0-litre V10 from BMW. Besides having an affinity for any
engine with more than eight cylinders, the torque-happy 5 litre sounds like
straight glory and is happy to induce all sorts of tail-wagging fun from
the outgoing M5. The minds at Dinan have taken the time to put the engine
through the standard performance ringer by boring and stroking the block to
a full 5.8-litres, dropping a set of performance cams into the head,
bolting on a dry-sump oil system and wrapping the whole project up with a
set of racing Exhaust headers.
What did all of that effort net? How does 720 naturally-aspirated horsepower at 8,300 rpm and
497 pound-feet of torque grab you? The engine was specifically designed to
be used in the Riley Technologies 2011 MKXXV track day car. We just like
seeing it punish the engine stand and light its Exhaust purple..

Realistic Engine Building Game - 006 - 2700hp Turbocharged V8
Automation is a car company tycoon game in which you design and build cars
from scratch. It is you who designs everything from the very core that is
the engine, over the chassis, to the suspension and the car's looks.
Several games have tried this before... but were able to merely scratch the
surface. Go ahead, build your dream-car company, or simply aim to dominate
the world markets with your superior design skills! The game is still in
development, with the Engine Designer already available for you to try out.
The Car Designer will be completed next, followed by the tycoon part of the
game. We release new milestone versions of the game as they are done,
adding new features and content as the game moves closer to completion.
Automation is aimed to be released in late 2014, with a Steam Early Access
version available before.
In Automation you will be placed in control of a newly founded car company
starting in the post-war era of 1946. You will be responsible for designing
your cars from scratch -- from the chassis and the engine to its body
styling. Your goal is to meet the needs of different markets and various
types of buyers. You will need to research new technology to keep ahead of
your competitors and expand your company. While there have been numerous
great racing games focused on the thrill of racing, there have been very
few games about the cars themselves. This is where Automation is different.
Not only will you enjoy the freedom to design cars that look how you want,
but you will also be responsible for the technical aspects such as creating
your own engines. Benchmark your creations and watch their components in
action while you are provided with realistic specifications and performance
figures. Easy to understand descriptions will help you optimize your car
designs, even without prior car or engine knowledge.
Solid engine design is a big part of creating a successful car in
Automation. The game gives you the opportunity to build your own engines
from scratch; from the engine configuration, over the valvetrain design, to
the fuel system and detailed turbocharging systems. Many design changes even
affect the engine sound. Compromises and challenges abound, do you need
the smallest and cheapest engine possible for a budget mini-car or a
no-expense-spared twin-turbo beast for
your next supercar? There are literally quadrillions of possible engines to
design. (We counted..) Want to challenge your engine building skills? 50+
different engine scenarios put you in the shoes of an engineer to build
motors for every possible application, while the Engine Design Multiplayer
lets you test your skills against human opponents in a race against the
clock. Lots of video tutorials, part descriptions and an extensive manual
help engineering novices learn how engines work and how they can apply
these skills in-game. All these features are already available right now
in the current release, with lots more engine types coming soon.
Of course, engines need to be put into cars, which you do in the Car
Designer. Choose between various chassis and materials, drive train
layouts, suspension types and more. A huge range of car bodies, styling
tools and cosmetic design items let you create unique and interesting car
designs through the decades. Test and tune your cars' performance to
optimize handling, aerodynamics, acceleration and comfort to squeeze the
last bit out of your designs. Lots of design options, parts and gadgets
let you build anything from a cheap and nasty budget hatchback or van to a
supercar or opulent luxury cruiser. Tailor your cars to a wide audience or
pioneer niche markets. A small taste of the cosmetic side of Automation's
Car Designer is already available, and work is well underway on the full
mechanical design and performance testing aspects. These new features will
become available as they are completed in the coming months.
